However, Greenwich Council has since clarified that the star didn't breach their licensing conditions, describing curfew fines as an "urban myth".

"The Royal Borough of Greenwich has not taken any action against the owners of The O2 in relation to Justin Bieber's recent performance, as no breach of our licensing conditions took place," a spokesperson said in a statement.

"It is simply a contractual issue between AEG and the artist involved, as there is no requirement for performances to finish by 11pm."
